Males didn't have to identify themselves as male on the GC subreddit... so that likely won't be a rule here either.

I did it voluntarily. Feels helpful to communicate that there are indeed men out there who agree and also see the impact this all has on women (while men largely pay no price).

I titled it "Respectful Requests" for a reason, which would be that I personally am asking men who post to identify themselves as male. It does make a difference in my response, because when I'm talking to a woman, I can be almost certain that we share at least some of the same experiences that I do not share with any men.

But again, it was a request, not a demand.

Males were largely banned from the GC subreddit. That’s why.

Not if they followed the rules. As I've stated a few times... there was a stickied mod post about longtime GC women being banned for being "uncivil" towards men (and libfems) on the subreddit months before the banned. The mods said men were welcomed as long as they followed the rules, and they didn't have to use flairs to identify that they were men.

GC men were welcomed with opened arms which frustrated some GC women to the point of the mods telling women to be nice. "Misandrists" were banned in favor of keeping men.

Disgusting.

PinkPillFeminism didn't allow men which was so much better than the GC sub.
